Hear Japan's New Phone Agent

In a video from NTT Docomo's Winter 2012 model line unveiling on Thursday, we can hear the enhanced Shabette Concier ("Talking Concierge") voice agent service in action with the voice of the K-ON! anime's high school girl Ritsu. Similar to Apple's Siri, Shabette Concier lets users ask questions and give commands in their natural speaking voice, and the phone (via Docomo's cloud services) will interpet the request and talk back.
